    Guide for beginners looking to get less bad

    Noted. I'll take the time out tomorrow to get it categorized and sorted out. Sorry about that in advance; I'm from Texas so the whole literature thing wasn't hammered into my skull that well.

    Guide for beginners looking to get less bad

    Character Specifics: Obviously there are certain matchups that are harder than others depending on who is fighting who. We all know Painwheel is the best character but even she has trouble with certain characters' attacks. So what do you do when you just can't seem to anti-air that Umbrella Slap...

    Guide for beginners looking to get less bad

    EDIT: Now with moar organization How to play fighting games for the beyond Beginner: Move types: Reversal moves/Counters: Each move in every matchup can be countered by another much like in rock, paper, scissors. (Unless it's Filia you're fighting because she's stupid but we love her anyway...

    Skullgirls Encore Edition Tiers and Matchups Discussion Thread: The Revengeance

    After playing USF4 for over a hundred hours and returning to Skullgirls I'd like to say: Painwheel is the highest tier of all time! :PUN: You don't even have to do combos (people need to learn how to grab tech) I digress. I found Painwheel to basically be the best because almost all of her...

    What got you into skullgirls, and why are you staying?

    I don't speak for everybody. But I play Street Fighter a lot as well, and Skullgirls is a really nice contrast. I like it more than MvC because it feels a lot more fair. Like it's not just a bad matchup that makes you lose. But rather it's your own fault. The characters are so balanced that...

    Real talk: issues facing society

    No. A police state is much worse than what you may think. Although kids are slowly being taught not to stand up for themselves and to be more conforming to rules in order to evade ramifications (a common predecessor of a broken society), we still have quite a lot of freedoms to be thankful for...

    Real talk: issues facing society

    I was told by the pharmacist at my pharmacy that only 5% of people ever work hard enough to ever be anything (like doctors, lawyers etc.) He followed with the statement, "In life we are all slaves in one way or another. You either live, or slowly die." So now I'm all hell bent on going to...

    Painwheel MDE Combo Thread (Page 3 Onwards)

    So I made a cute little combo that's easy to do for beginners that comes complete with an easy grab reset option. If not, then you can choose to either death crawl or buer overdrive for an easy 7k - 9k. It's corner only though.

    A Minor Bug that probably wouldn't come up in a match

    This whole time I thought that was normal. I figured DC was some exception to the rule or something.

    Tips on not getting discouraged?

    I have a couple words of advice for you on this matter. When I picked up Street Fighter I felt that way a lot. Partly due to some ridiculous advantages some characters have over Juri, and partly by my own failures. Anyway the obvious one is to keep trying. Next I recommend focusing on things...

    Painwheel general discussion AKA GET OUT OF MY THREAD

    Oh. Two buttons at once kind of makes it a turn off for me. Well. I guess I could make left bumper do something valuable since I never use the macro. Thanks though. But I know better than to try and punish a good Parasoul. They will swat you like a fly if you try any funny business. Sometimes...

    Painwheel general discussion AKA GET OUT OF MY THREAD

    Okay I keep running into this term, but I have no idea if it's literal or some tech jargon. I knew you could fly, but UNfly? Last time I checked there's no way to just stop flying without doing an attack of some kind, grabbing, or trying to fly a third time. Do you mean to tell me that there's...

    Painwheel general discussion AKA GET OUT OF MY THREAD

    You know, I never ever use nails. Maybe that's one of my problems. I sometimes forget they are even there. I'll definitely give it a shot. Other Painwheels terrify me.

    Painwheel general discussion AKA GET OUT OF MY THREAD

    So about the Big Band matchup, for the new Painwheel players, I made a motivational video from the bottom of my wheel: It's some of my bad gameplay. I feel like my gameplay is very sloppy most of the time, which tells me I haven't come close to my fullest abilities yet. One issue I have is I...

    My matches are dropping after a few seconds of play.

    Appreciate it. Things are back to normal to some extent. Looks like my access point will randomly lose connection with my wireless adapter for some reason. (Not related to the game at all. In the world of networking it's a lot of "Oh this setting isn't matching up on both ends. Oh another...

    My matches are dropping after a few seconds of play.

    I apologize in advance if this is not the appropriate place to ask about this. Recently (as of yesterday) whenever I enter a quick match and the fight begins, after a few seconds of play I get disconnected. Earlier Windows Firewall was giving me trouble about Dark Souls, so I assumed it must be...

    Painwheel general discussion AKA GET OUT OF MY THREAD

    I have noticed a little bit of what Dime mentions about blocking. In contrast, getting pushblocked can shut her down, which makes me wonder if she isn't your typical block -> counter character. (Like maybe that's not how you're suppose to fight with her if that makes sense?) It's kind of her...
